I detoured on one of my "normal" commute routes today to avoid waiting for a long light. E.g. I turned right on the red and rode up just one block and then swung a left. This left me paralleling my normal route. After a couple blocks it also put me in a kind of alley way, that had a nice little stretch of gravel riding.
It isn't particularly noteworthy, but it did add something different and fun for a few blocks of the commute. So, what did you find interesting on your ride to work? If the answer is nothing, try diverting a few blocks just for the heck of it....you might just find some fun!
Yesterday I decided to take a different route from my usual, diverting onto Greenbrae. I stayed on it longer than I had planned so I ended heading south on El Rancho past Taglia Park (?) The tree leaves were bright orange and red -- just beautiful!! And then rode past a drive-in theater on 9th Street. I knew there was one in Reno-Sparks but wasn't sure where so that was it!
